We would love to expand our offerings! We currently have Flash and PowerPoint capabilities for our own "movie" presentations but need technical assistance to get them up and running!!!
Techies, can you help with that? Techies, will you help with that?!
We also want a rich expanse of voices & faces so artists, poets, ministers, families, we know you can help with that!! We are looking to span these categories: Sounds: Songs are added/featured each month and can include lyrics, mp3, pictures. We also feature and encourage spoken voices in prayer, comment, story; this includes Kidspeak, Minister Moment, or any other voice calling & willing to be heard. Curriculum: Activities, affirmation, and stories using the song and other resources on the site for home or church use. Words: Monthly affirmation + additional, inspirational words in the form of quotes, poetry, stories. Do you have a story that speaks to any of of themes?! Pictures: Artwork and photographs will be used to help illustrate our inspirational messages. Video: We can currently do the little videos you see on the site and we can probably come to you ... so let us know if you want to play or pray on camera! We also plan to develop Flash movies ...

Upcoming Monthly Themes:
* April ~ Awareness * May ~ Kindness * June ~ Imagination

Most materials are welcome here! Of course, we will not publish anything that is inappropriate
to our audience or our mission. So that means, keep it clean, reverent & respectful, inclusive, inspirational and fun! We honor all paths to God and ask that you do the same. Read About Us
